Why this kit matters
The Nissan Skyline 2000 GTR, also known as the “Hakosuka” (a nickname combining “box” and “Skyline”), is a legendary Japanese sports car first introduced in 1969. Equipped with a 2.0-litre inline-six engine producing over 160 horsepower, it dominated the Japanese touring car championships in the early 1970s, winning an impressive 50 races in under three years. Its reputation for performance cemented the Skyline name as a motorsport powerhouse.
The 2000 GTR also holds immense cultural value, as it laid the foundation for future Skyline and GT-R models that became global icons in motorsport and popular culture. Today, the Hakosuka is revered by collectors and car fans worldwide, symbolising the golden age of Japanese performance cars. Aoshima’s 1/32 scale kit captures this historic model, letting builders recreate a piece of automotive heritage in a compact and accessible format.
How to use it
Lay out the sprues and follow the instructions to snap the parts together. The pre-coloured Red body and detailed trims mean no painting is required, but optional paintwork can enhance smaller details like the wheels, bumpers, or interior. Once assembled, display your Skyline on a shelf or as part of a classic Japanese car collection.
